Past projects

Potteries Heritage Society, working with the City Council, secured grants from the Heritage Lottery and Staffordshire Environmental Funds totalling more than £600,000 to help repair 10 of the remaining bottle ovens considered to be most at risk. The project included the establishment of a Buildings Preservation Trust, which leased the structures from their owners and attended to their ongoing maintenance.

Our Lottery success has proved that we can make a difference to the way our heritage is regarded. More and more agencies are beginning to realise the value of effective partnerships between community groups and the public and private sectors.
